Huge outbreak? Iceland is seeing about 100 cases per day, and has seen exactly 1 death in all of 2021.
Who in the hell do they think they are by relying on time tested, scientifically proven, 100 years worth of immunology research? Don’t they know who Dr Fauci is?
Will they start doing Covid parties?
We used to to chickenpox parties, measles parties and later flu parties.

Gudneson seems to know what he is doing and follows the Science, unlike Lord Fauxcy.
There’s been a lot of people going to see the volcano. Apparently it’s been a boon to the economy.
Maybe right. Trump came out and said it’s like the flu. And he got trashed for it. I know people that have been really sick from it. Know a few that died. Maybe a little worse or different than the flu. But people are being killed from taking the vaccine. And killed by the virus. Some of us thought perhaps with the survival rate that you just let it run it’s course. Some that has lost people close to them may think different but what are we supposed to do. The FDA won’t approve the vaccine yet. So it’s experimental and is it saving lives. You can have the vaccine and still catch it.
If this guy is vaccine hesitant for the sake of his country, I predict his untimely death within 30 days
It’s too late for natural immunity to save the day. Too many people got suckered into taking the vaccine and that’s changed how their immune system responds to the virus, so they can’t develop natural immunity anymore. Perhaps in a while after the vaccine wears off... if they survive that long.
Of course most countries will probably keep pursuing this idiocy with “booster shots” of a vaccine that doesn’t work, extending the misery even further.
Evidently not as sophisticated as Hussein’s birthday guests like Chrissy Tiegen.
Maybe time would have been better spend coming up with treatments for covid instead of mass vaccinated every man woman and child on the planet since most people who get sick are not in life threatening situations.

Natural infection is the ONLY way to reach herd immunity...to the extent we can with an ever mutating virus.
We should go back to the proven models of even 60 years ago.
‘Rona parties for kids!
Expose every child in the world to Covid before they turn 7.
As for the rest of us, we’ll either make it or we won’t. Vax or not.
Good for Iceland!
Dr. Atlas was right.
Short of no China Virus at all, the Delta variant plus the vaccines are likely the best things that could be happening. The Delta variant has less serious conditions, and the vaccine weakens it even more. Yet those who recover get long lasting immunity. This can, indeed, create herd immunity.
True. Covid will have to spread through the population before it burns out.
Population 341K, 95% urban, median age 37
As of June 25, 2021, health authorities had invited all residents 16 and older (ca. 280,000 people) to receive their first dose.
As of mid-July, all residents 16 and had been offered one or both doses. As of July 26, 68.58% of Iceland’s population was fully vaccinated and an additional 3.82% was partially vaccinated.
They’re giving up too soon
Are there instances of us reaching herd immunity to a virus without a vaccine?
